We held our wedding in the clearing and it was the most beautiful setting that a girl could ever ask for!

Great spot in the desert for a colder night and shadow. We enjoyed our night a lot.

We love it here. Nice and peaceful and the weather is very cool. Great place for getting out of the heat.
Love seeing the deer so close and right in your campsite.
Great place and we will continue to stay here in the future.

The campsite is better than what the pictures show. I was worried it would be narrow but there’s lots of space. There are only food storage lockers in the group campsite so you’ll have to consider taking your own bear proof storage or leave food in the car. We didn’t encounter any bears luckily, but we did see lots of deer around our site at night. The vault toilets were surprisingly the cleanest and best smelling I’ve experienced. Bring your own TP as they don’t refill it often throughout the day. It was easy to locate and you’re surrounded by so many trees. I loved hearing the wind approaching because the trees will rustle. We had our privacy, but also encountered lots of friendly people here. I’m honestly so surprised at how well kept the campground is.

Beautiful spot! We had zero issues even coming in after dark! We had quiet neighbors and bathroom was clean.

Nice campground among the aspen trees with a Meadow in the middle of the loop. Lots of wildlife. We saw deers, wild turky and some cows.

Very quiet, pretty campground, near Monticello, UT. Lots of aspen. Most campers were in tents. We had a 30' travel trailer and it was impossible to back into our spot going the right way on the campground loop. Also, the spot was quite short and had a big aspen tree directly behind it. We had to unhitch the trailer to avoid blocking the road.
It did not rain while we were there, but there was a runoff area right behind our camp site. Also, though we had crossed a cattle guard on the way in, there were cattle wandering through. At least it was high enough in altitude to be much cooler than Monticello.
The campground was clean, had a nice fire ring and picnic table. It was nicely shaded.
